They have been around for several years at least and I have friends who purchase audiobooks from them! I also love Libby for renting audiobooks through the library!

Have you read Robin Wall Kimmerer's Gathering Moss? If not, I think you would enjoy it!

What if the US-Canada trade war motivates communities to invest in local food production systems? Can we create more community gardens on private and public land, tackle massive food wastage with evidence-based diversion programs, and make ourselves less dependent on fragile global supply chains?

"There are many environmental groups all over the country. If you don’t know where to start, seek out your local chapter of: Sunrise Movement (for youth), Third Act (for seniors), and (for all) Citizens Climate Lobby, 350.org, Surfrider, and the Sierra Club." - @ayanaeliza.bsky.social

"Now what can a regular person do to push cities and states to fill the growing federal void? A lot. I share heaps of examples in my book What If We Get It Right? But, for now, let’s focus on just one key action: Join a local environmental group." - @ayanaeliza.bsky.social

They know the executive order is illegal, it's not designed to survive a challenge.

They are blaring a message designed to get people to censor themselves and throw their colleagues under the bus and fall in line.

If you have a smidge of power and you catch yourself thinking:

Maybe we'll be safe if we:
- tone this justice program a bit
- take that 'decolonization' reference off the website
- nix that grant for decarbonization...

know that you are playing your part in Trump's game perfectly.

β€œWe live in capitalism, its power seems inescapable β€” but then, so did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art. Very often in our art, the art of words.”

BONKERS to me that Elon's double nazi salute isn't the leading news story today. What in the fuck kind of world

b) well, fuck
c) wait that part was real good
d) wait no that part sucks
e) I am a god of this place
f) the fuck is this shit, who do I think I am, why am I here
g) oh man I just figured it all out
h) mistakes were made
I) existential dread

At this point it’s been said in a hundred different ways, so I think people are being intentional about not getting it.
